Common use of Small Claims Clause in Contracts

Small Claims. You and We retain the right to seek individual relief in small claims court so long as the Claim is only in that court and is within that court’s jurisdiction. Filing or pursuing a Claim in small claims court does not waive any right to seek arbitration for Claims outside the court’s jurisdiction or if the Claim is transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court. Excluded Claims. The following claims, called Excluded Claims, are excluded from the arbitration process: self-help remedies (such as repossession), foreclosure, replevin, garnishment, and/or individual injunctive relief. Pursuing an Excluded Claim in court does not waive any right to seek arbitration for Claims outside the court’s jurisdiction, or if an Excluded Claim is transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court. Non-Waiver. Even if a Claim is brought in court, You or We may choose to arbitrate any Claim made by a new party or any Claim later asserted by a party in that action or any related or unrelated lawsuit. Arbitration Process. Arbitrations will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or, if the AAA is not available, another arbitration organization, subject to agreement by both You and Us. You can find the rules of the AAA by visiting its website at xxx.xxx.xxx. Arbitrators must be attorneys or retired judges with at least 15 years of experience practicing law. Arbitrators must be selected according to rules of the AAA or any other agreed arbitration organization. Arbitrators must apply substantive governing law and applicable statutes of limitation. The arbitration hearing will be conducted before a single arbitrator in the federal district where You live. The arbitration may take place somewhere else more convenient to You if required by the rules of the AAA or any other agreed arbitration organization. If You and We agree, the arbitration can be conducted by telephone. You will pay an administrative fee and arbitrator’s fees. The AAA caps Your fees depending on the amount of any Claim that You file. We will be responsible for administrative fees and arbitrator’s fees in excess of the capped amounts. If You ask Us in writing, We will pay the entire administrative fee and arbitrator’s fees. You and We will each pay Our own attorney’s fees and witness and experts’ expenses, except as otherwise required by law or this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitration award must be in a written, reasoned opinion. Any award must be kept confidential. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding. You and We have a limited right to appeal as permitted under the Federal Arbitration Act, except that if any arbitration results in an award of damages of $100,000 or more, either You or We may appeal that award to a three (3) arbitrator panel (selected under AAA rules), which arbitration panel will hear the Claim de novo.
